fsx-ms Shared Cockpit Across Platforms

[roadrabbit316 0]

We have tried to share cockpit using the built-in 'Shared Cockpit' facility which appears in both FSX-MS and in FSX-SE. So far it seems that it only works if both users are using the same edition of FSX - i.e. it does not work if one user is on FSX-MS and the other is on FSX-SE.

 

My first question is: is this correct, or are we doing something wrong? On all occasions we were using a default Cessna 172 aircraft simulation.

 

If it is indeed the case that sharing cockpit does not work between these two platforms, do STEAM have any plans to change this in the future?

 

Lastly - is there a work-around which will enable the cockpit sharing facility to work across these two platforms?

 

I am not holding my breath  :wink:

 

PS  We have used the facility very successfully with both users on the same platform.
